Every type of facility in Praesum's Georgia family of companies addresses a specific step of the addiction recovery process. In becoming a participating provider with Ambetter at Sunrise Detox, Evolve Recovery Center, and The Counseling Centers, Praesum continues its commitment to meeting emerging consumer preferences in Georgia, including growing interest in access to affordability.

"We are excited to expand our relationship with Ambetter to make our addiction services in Georgia more accessible to those in need," said Lynda Micheletti, Chief Operating Officer for Praesum Healthcare. "This innovative health plan will support affordable and convenient access to residential, detox and IOP (Intensive Outpatient) treatment for substance use disorders."

The clinical leadership at Praesum knows that we are more equipped to help individuals attain long-term mental health and sobriety by staying focused on their needs and treating them with dignity. That approach, shared by Praesum Healthcare organization with its network of thirty facilities across five states, and www.ambetterhealth.com in Georgia, is based on the core belief that quality healthcare is best delivered locally.
